This is a continuing application. You must advise the Bar Examining Committee of any changes to any of the answers on your bar application. Article IX of the Committee’s regulations provides for a one-year time limit to complete your application. After one year, incomplete applications will be deemed to be withdrawn.

If so, explain on Form 2 and include any asserted defense or claim in mitigation or as an explanation of your conduct and, if applicable to your explanation, Form 8.

Yes

No

35. Within the past five years, have you exhibited any conduct or behavior that could call into question your ability to practice law in a competent, ethical, and professional manner? If so, explain on Form 2.

Questions 36 – 37 address mental health and chemical or psychological dependency matters. The Committee asks these questions because of its responsibility to protect the public by determining the current fitness of an applicant to practice law, and the purpose of these questions is to determine an applicant’s current fitness to practice law. This information, along with all other information, is treated confidentially by the Committee and the Administrative Office. Each applicant is considered on an individual basis. The mere fact of treatment for mental health problems or chemical or psychological dependency is not, in and of itself, a basis on which an applicant is ordinarily denied admission to the Connecticut bar. The Connecticut Bar Examining Committee regularly recommends licensing of individuals who have demonstrated personal responsibility and maturity in dealing with mental health and chemical or psychological dependency issues. The Committee encourages applicants who may benefit from treatment to seek it, and the Committee views such treatment as a positive factor in evaluating an application. As indicated in the Rules, all proceedings conducted pursuant to the Rules and Regulations are confidential.

On occasion, a license may be denied when an applicant’s ability to function is impaired in a manner that indicates that the applicant is currently unfit to practice law at the time the licensing decision is made, or when the applicant demonstrates a lack of candor and/or credibility by his or her response. Protection of the public that will receive legal services underlies the licensing responsibilities assigned to the Committee. Furthermore, each applicant is responsible for demonstrating that he or she possesses the qualifications necessary to practice law. Your response may include information as to why, in your opinion or that of your treatment provider, your condition will not affect your ability to practice law in a competent and professional manner.

The Connecticut Bar Examining Committee does not, by its questions, seek information that is characterized as situational counseling, such as stress counseling, domestic counseling, and grief counseling. Generally, the Committee does not view these types of counseling as germane to the issue of whether an applicant is qualified to practice law. If you answer “YES” to Question 36, complete Forms 7 and 8. Make as many copies of the forms as you need to describe the events.

Yes

No

36. Do you currently have any condition or impairment (including, but not limited to, substance abuse, alcohol

abuse, or a mental, emotional, or nervous disorder or condition) that in a material way affects your ability to practice law in a competent, ethical, and professional manner? “Currently” means recently enough that the condition or impairment could reasonably affect your ability to function as a lawyer. If your answer is yes, continue to Question 37 and complete Forms 7 and 8. If your answer is no, continue to Question 38.

Yes

NA

No

37. If your answer to Question 36 is yes, are the limitations caused by your condition or impairment reduced or ameliorated because you receive ongoing treatment or because you participate in a monitoring or support program?
